67 Bar Mitzvah Gifts That He'll Really Want On His Big Day

A Jewish boy approaching his thirteenth birthday is likely feeling a mix of anxiety and excitement, but you can help him feel more excited than anything with one of these great Bar Mitzvah gifts. Say Mazel Tov with a selection of gifts that balance faith with fun, and set him up for success as he makes his transition from boyhood to manhood. Since religious customs can be hard to navigate, if you're wondering about the gift etiquette surrounding how much you should give, any amount of money or gift card value in a multiple of the number 18 is perfect. It aligns with numerology that's meaningful to Jewish culture that has to do with the Hebrew letters Chet and Yud, which make up the word Chai. Teen boys are a unique lot, and some might be more open to receiving a gift that will help them feel closer to their faith like a sterling silver Star of David necklace or a Tallit they can wear to Shabbat Morning Service at the synagogue. Others might still be figuring things out and will prefer a gift that caters to their interests or enjoying some time with their friends. Either way, the unique assortment of Bar Mitzvah gifts on this list are sure to exceed any teen's expectation of his big day.
